Dumbledore? He knows nothing about MC alchemy.

Kaisen lightly tapped his wand, and a purple cube floating in the air suddenly appeared, surrounded by white cubic frames.

The moment the End Crystal appeared, it flew towards Quirrell at a rapid speed.

boom!

Quirrell was blown away and fell to the ground, his life or death unknown.

The entire auditorium was silent for a moment, and then the next moment.

"OHOHOHOHOHOHOH!!!!!"

Chapter 38 Home Visit

Kaisen walked down the platform and came to Quirrell who was lying on the ground. He confirmed that the old man would probably stay in the medical wing for one to two weeks before he withdrew his gaze with relief.

As for the missing Defense Against the Dark Arts course, he believed that someone would be happy to take it.

After returning to the office, Kaisen took out a bottle of champagne from the cabinet, which was very rare, and walked towards Hagrid's cabin.

the next day...

Hagrid left the cabin early with a handful of red ribbons, because Christmas was coming soon, although he didn't know why wizards celebrated this holiday.

But Christmas trees are still needed. To the pine trees in the Forbidden Forest, the red ribbon in Hagrid's hand is like the King of Hell's army.

If you are tied with a piece of cloth today, you will probably not survive until next year.

What a miserable word.

Unlike Hagrid, Kaison had no classes today, so he could leisurely return to the castle and his office, greeting all the little wizards he met on the way.

Then he returned to the office, picked up the roll call list and parchment of the little wizards, and prepared gifts for each of them. After everything was ready, all that was left was to wait.

Wait until Christmas.

..............

Woohoo! ! !

Kaisen was standing at Hogsmeade Station. It was the first time he saw the Hogwarts Express, and he was also curious about this performance art of cosplaying as a Muggle train.

After all, a magic-driven train theoretically doesn't need to emit smoke.

He boarded the train with the ticket Dumbledore gave him.

After all, according to him, almost every young wizard has ridden the Hogwarts Express since it was invented, but he missed this experience because he did not attend school.

So Dumbledore left a ticket for him so that he could experience that feeling.

Of course, his trip on the train was not entirely for the experience. After all, he had packed up all his belongings in the Muggle world and brought them to Hogwarts, and he planned to spend the Christmas holidays directly in Hogwarts.

This time I went out of school mainly to visit homes and return gifts from my Muggle friends.

Because of Neville's personality, Kaisen thought it was because his grandmother's personality was too strong. He had wanted to write a letter to Neville's grandmother before, but he was always busy and he didn't know how to write when he picked up a pen.

In contrast, he prefers to sit face to face with a cup of hot tea and some non-sweet but fragrant snacks in front of him, and madly demonstrate the charm of language.

Based on this, the home visit to the Longbottom family came into being.

However, he did not sit in the same carriage with Neville, even though there were empty seats in the carriage because Harry and Ron were staying at school for Christmas.

After all, he was a professor, and sitting with Neville always made him feel uncomfortable.

After all, home visits are already very... presumptuous.

Time passed until the train stopped at the Muggle station, Platform 9 and 3/4 of King's Cross Station. After getting off the train, Kaisen soon saw the highly recognizable witch that Professor McGonagall had mentioned.

An old lady with a stern face, wearing an extremely complicated wizard robe and a large brown-green wizard hat. In short, she seemed to have a good relationship with Professor McGonagall.

After all, apart from their clothing styles, the old lady tends to be more complicated, while Professor McGonagall tends to be more low-key.

But the two of them have very similar temperaments.

"Professor Heath, I'm Augusta Longbottom, Neville's grandmother. He wrote me a box of letters, all about you, thanking you for taking care of this poor child."

Augusta also noticed Kaisen, who stood out among the group of young wizards, and walked over and said.

"Kasenhith, feel free to call me Mrs. Longbottom. I'm here mainly because of Neville's personality."

"Did that kid cause you any trouble?"

"No, no, no." Kaisen waved his hands quickly. "No trouble, absolutely not. In fact, the child is too obedient and too honest. He's too honest to be a Gryffindor."

"I see... This child's personality has always been like this, too... too timid. I always thought he was a Hufflepuff." Augusta agreed.

Kaisen nodded and was about to say something when he heard a series of footsteps and Neville came jogging towards him from a distance.

"Grandma, Professor Kaysen!"

"Would you mind coming to the Longbottom house for a quick meal?" Augusta asked.

"Of course, it's just a quickie."

Augusta held Neville's little hand with his left hand and put his right hand on Kaisen's shoulder. The next moment, the three of them appeared on a small island.

Kaisen looked at the ancient and magnificent manor not far away.

“If I were to decorate this…”

In an instant, Kaisen quickly drove this inappropriate thought out of his head.

There are only two people in Longbottom Manor now, plus an outsider like Kaisen.

Of course, Kaisen didn't know how many members the Longbottom family had now, and there was no need to ask.

He came for a home visit, not to check the household registration.

At least today, there are indeed only three of them in the huge manor, if you ignore the house-elves hiding in every corner.

This also allowed Kaisen to have a more accurate assessment of Mrs. Longbottom's strength.

How could he not be powerful when he owned such a vast estate? If he weren't, he would have been completely taken over by some distant relative who appeared out of nowhere.

After all, the wizarding world has a Ministry of Magic, but how efficient is theirs? In fact, it is just so-so. They can catch anyone who performs magic, cooks, or does decoration in the Muggle world.

However, those who committed murder, arson and all kinds of evil in the wizarding world began to pretend to be dead, just like dead people.

The three of them first sat down in the living room, or really not three people, because when Neville wanted to sit in, Augusta just gave him a look, and he obediently returned to his own bedroom.

"Please go ahead, Professor Heath."

"What you just did is exactly what I want to say, Madam Longbottom. This child has been suffocated by your strong pressure. He also has other problems. As a Gryffindor, he has lost his courage under your pressure."

Kaisen used the same mentality and eloquence he had when he first started out in the decoration industry and negotiated with those lousy clients, and was ready to spit out the last bit of his saliva with his tongue.

Unexpectedly, Augusta did not rush to refute how good his educational policy was like those wise parties, but nodded helplessly.

"Of course I know this, but, to be honest, I'm not trying to belittle Neville, but he really can't do anything right."

Chapter 39 Christmas Gift

Then Kaisen was forced to listen for nearly an hour about all the embarrassing things that happened to Neville from the time he was born to before he started school.

In a sense, this is also complementary.

Why do they complement each other? Neville's talent is a little dull, so he caused dissatisfaction among the Longbottom family. In order to make Neville show his magical talent, the Longbottom family used various high-pressure plans.

This high-pressure plan hurt Neville's heart, which was also a great harm to the wizard who cast magic against his will.

In this way, Neville and the Longbottom family complemented each other, and in a sense, they [hurt each other], causing pain to both groups.

And there is no error found.

It's true that everyone in the Longbottom family wants the heir of the Longbottom family to show magical talent.

Neville is a little kid, so it's not his fault that he's dull. In fact, Neville can't be said to be dull, he's just not confident enough, and this is the point of his lack of confidence.

Kaisen reviewed the entire incident in detail and finally found the person mainly responsible.

Voldemort and his minions.

That's right, this is the person who is mainly responsible for Neville's problems at this moment.

After figuring this out, Kaisen suddenly became enlightened and escaped the trap of self-consumption.

Soon dinner was prepared by the house-elves and served on the table. Kaisen took a look and was once again surprised at the strength of these old pure-blood families.

In the past, these foods were enjoyed by all faculty and staff at Hogwarts, but today, only the three of them had food that was almost as much as the Hogwarts dinner.

The meal was a great success for both the host and the guests, but Kaisen still noticed that whenever Neville saw his grandmother, he would unconsciously shrink and feel timid.

At the dinner table, he emphasized to Augusta how Neville had done at Hogwarts, how, without the suppression of the old woman in front of him, Neville had almost killed the heir of the Malfoy family with a single wand.

Of course, this has a little bit of artistic processing attributes.

But this also let Mrs. Longbottom know that as long as she did not suppress Neville, Neville could also be very good, at least in combat and herbology.

"I will do as you say, Professor Kaysen, um... encourage education." Mrs. Longbottom sent Kaysen to the gate of the manor, and of course Neville followed behind her.

The two of them obviously wanted to continue sending it out, to a place where the apparition restriction could not reach.

"It's enough here. In fact, it is not necessary to encourage education. Normal education is fine, as long as it is not suppressed. As for normal education, to be honest, I think you can learn from the Weasley family, of course, the Weasley family in the Burrow." Kaisen explained.

"I'll find time to go to the Burrow."

"Well, not this Christmas. It seems they are going to look for their eldest or second son."

"Professor, are you really not staying here? Even for one day is fine." Neville said behind Mrs. Longbottom.

"I'm sorry, but to be honest, I'm quite busy this Christmas. I have a lot of work to do when I return to Hogwarts. The fourth-year Enchanting Table papers have also passed the review, and I still have to find time to take them to receive the honors they deserve."

"Also, there are plans for the renovation and expansion of my office, and Christmas gifts for all of you, which are already prepared but not yet packed, with cards and mailing."

"Have you prepared much?"

"Of course, besides yours and the professors', there are also my Muggle friends. After leaving school, I have to go back to my previous residence to receive their gifts. I'm very busy, to be honest." Kaisen explained.

"OK then."

Kaisen nodded to the two of them, and then there was a roar, and he disappeared from the spot, leaving only wisps of purple light.

"...Professor Kaysen was able to break free from the restrictions of Apparition? And wasn't that the magic of the Portkey?" Mrs. Longbottom murmured in surprise.

"I'm not surprised by anything Professor Kaysen does. He even sent Quirrell into the hospital wing with one move before."
